Story
Karthi (Aadi), Swathi (Erika) are a
young married couple who works for a software company and are considered
as best couple by their friends/colleagues. However, there is other
side to their relationship being struck in their past love and each of
them having a love story. They stay together not because of love but for
responsibility. Into the flashback, Karthi is in love with Parineethi
aka Paru (Kristina Akheeva). While the former wants to get married to
her, the latter isn’t yet ready for relationship and this leads to their
breakup. On the other hand, Arav Reddy (Rahul Ravindran) loves Swathi
deeply but the latter caring for her parents gets married to Karthi of
their choice. Back from the flashback, Paru realizes her love for Karthi
and Aarav still waits for Swathi. The rest of the part is to be watched
on screens.
Aadi scores well with
his subtle and natural performance. He is evolving as an actor with each
film and Gaalipatam is by far his best role.
Erica looks good and
has bagged a decent role, Kristina is impressive in Paru’s role. Rahul
Ravindran plays crucial role and he is good.
Pragathi is perfect, Sapthagiri, Posani are entertaining and others including Bharath Reddy, Bhargavi are adequate.
Technical Analysis
Bheems music is entertaining while the
cinematography by Bujji is decent. Background score elevates crucial
scenes. Dialogues are major asset of the film and Sampath Nandi sure
scores with his writing. As a debutant, Naveen Gandhi impresses with his
direction. Screenplay is okay and the editing is neat. Production
values are good.
Analysis
As the makers said earlier, Gaalipatam
has a bold and novel yet realistic concept that a section of audiences
may not agree with. However, director Naveen Gandhi narrates it in
entertaining way and the dialogues penned by Sampath Nandi works.
While the first half is passable with
focus on entertainment, the second half deals with emotional content and
complicated relationships. The interval block raises curiosity on the
latter half and the climax is very distinct. The contemporary storyline
will be liked by the present generation but an intense and taut
screenplay could have made Galipatam much more agreeable. Unnecessary
and forced comedy scenes of the Jabardasth batch could have been avoided
in the second half.
Despite its own flaws, Gaalipatam offers
novelty and is quite different from the regular formulaic movies which
will appeal to the current generation.
Final Verdict
Bold concept told in an entertaining way!!!
